Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

One of the UK’s best-loved psychotherapists reveals the blind spots that are clouding our judgement and affecting our relationships, and shares the tools to overcome them.

Have you ever had a conversation with a friend or relative that’s hit a nerve and you can’t figure out why it bothered you so much? Over the course of her 15-year career, Emma has discovered that the root of this pain and confusion often lies in a blind spot: a gap in our awareness that distorts how we perceive ourselves and our loved ones which, left unchallenged, can leave us feeling unloved, insecure or overwhelmed.

In What am I Missing? Emma reveals the four blind spot profiles along with client case studies to demonstrate how they show up in daily life, and exercises to help us see past them:

Are you THE GLADIATOR, determined but missing trust?

THE BRIDGE, easy-going but missing authenticity?

THE HUSTLER, charming but missing self-worth?

Or THE ROCK, resilient but missing boundaries?

Like sitting with your own therapist, What am I Missing? will help you understand yourself and your loved ones better than ever before, and gives you the keys to a happier life.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Hugely eye-opening

This book has been hugely eye-opening and I have already spotted myself falling into blind spots in my day to day. I now feel equipped to make different decisions. Thank you, Emma!

Clever, thoughtful and thorough

Such a helpful book for gaining perspective and reminding yourself to act in ways that aren’t just habitual. I’ll be listening a second time I’m sure!

Lack concrete solutions

It's a great book but lacks a concrete solution.
How to is not clear.
I wish she had added some sample solution.
